Ingredients
- Servings: about 2 dozen
- Preparation Time: 30 min prep, varies
- 2 2/3 cups shredded unsweetened coconut (or 1 cup prepared Coconut Cream Concentrate)
- 2 cups shredded unsweetened coconut
- 3/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1 1/4 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon pure almond extract
- 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
Preparation
Step 1
First, you'll need to use the 2 2/3 cups of shredded coconut to make homemade coconut butter, or just 1 cup of Coconut Cream Concentrate instead. Blend the coconut in a high-powered blender or food processor until creamy. (It's okay if the texture is slightly grainy.) To the coconut butter, add the rest of the ingredients, and mix well until a batter forms.
These macaroons can be baked in an oven, or gently dried in a dehydrator. For the oven, preheat to 300 degrees F and drop batter by rounded tablespoons onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the outsides are crispy, then allow to cool for an additional 25 minutes before removing from the pan to cool completely.

Maybe 300 degrees is too hot? Or perhaps the coconut cream wasn't completely blended so that the oil part made up most of your mix. I don't own a dehydrator myself so I'd have to bake them.
If using a dehydrator, simply drop the batter by rounded tablespoons onto the mesh sheets, and dry at 118 degrees F for up to 24 hours, or until desired crispiness is achieved.
These are awesome!! I made them last night and they taste great!! I used my own coconut to make the coconut butter. I was not disappointed!! :)
Make these all the time - so delicious and so easy. A bit hit with all my friends!
